Bach flower remedies (BFRs) are solutions of brandy and water—the water containing extreme dilutions of flower material developed by Edward Bach, an English medical doctor, in the 1910s. Bach stated that the dew found on flower petals retains the supposed healing properties of that plant.[1] The hypothesis that flower remedies are associated with effects beyond a placebo response is not supported by data from rigorous clinical trials.[2][3]
